Anti-aging for hair

Even if we don't want to admit it: After the age of 40, the hair structure often becomes thinner and sometimes even thins out. This is because the female body produces less and less oestrogen as we get older. These hormones are the most important female sex hormones and are also responsible for strong hair, among other things. But don't worry: with the right "nutrition program" you can get the problem under control - our anti-ageing tips for hair!

Underestimated by many women: anti-ageing for hair

Unfortunately, the lack of oestrogen does not stop at our hair becoming thinner and finer. The reduced hormone production also causes the scalp to lose oil. This makes the hair drier and more brittle. If gray hair is also added to this, the overall structure becomes somewhat more stubborn. But: no need to worry. We will show you ways in which you can soon enjoy beautiful, stronger hair again.

Anti-ageing for hair with the right shampoo & co

As with skin care, there are also anti-ageing products that build up and strengthen the hair. They contain active ingredients such as ceramides or keratin to stabilize the hair structure. Tinctures applied to the roots promote blood circulation. This provides the hair with more nutrients and can also stabilize hair density, thus reducing hair breakage.

Building from the inside

Sometimes they are a must: Dietary supplements in the form of capsules with zinc, biotin and vitamins stimulate keratin formation and effectively protect against hair loss. You can also support the anti-ageing program for your hair with your diet. Eat plenty of wholegrain products, fruit and vegetables and protein-rich foods.

Shades of Grey

Silver is the new gold. Even gray hair can look classy, it just needs a great cut and the right care. However, when hair loses pigmentation, it often becomes more stubborn and dry. Shampoos for blonde hair bring back the radiance. A weekly hair mask also nourishes and conditions. New on the market are tinctures designed to promote hair repigmentation without the need for hair coloring. Results of up to 30 percent less gray should be achieved (e.g. from Phyto).

Loss of fullness? Bad hair day?

If your mop of hair is hanging limp, apply a little volumizing fluid or mousse to the roots. Pre-dry your hair a little and then finally dry it strand by strand using a large round brush - this gives your hair great volume, makes it look fuller and makes you look younger overall. We say: bye-bye, flat hair! Whether cut, color or tinctures: Your anti-aging strategy for hair is therefore an overall concept of care, appearance and nutrition.
